Have an old Suzuki 140. Bulletproof. Yamaha's, had a 350 that exploded. Also one of twin Yammi 200s that didn't hold up very well. The Suzuki, like 12 years old now, still going strong. On my Newest-to-me boat it came with twin Suzuki 350s with dual props. WOW. Can't believe the different...

I have had Abels for a few years now. They were better than the MR3s for Rigger Trolling. TR3s are better though, so I run mostly those, with the Abels as backups. Kept one of the MR3s (and a few other reels) for friends that want to try different things.

Have been stacking for a while, and a couple situations where you can run into trouble stacking on braid: -weedy situation - weeds and the constant drag, can drag your stopper bead and/or your clip down your next stop whatever it is. -too much pressure/top rod tightened too much - opposite...

first day on the water since last Friday. Slow for me and sounds like slow for pretty much everyone.

baits been small all season.

I've been fishing Vancouver since '82, and WCVI since '86. I've put far more hours fishing WCVI, first out of Bamfield, then out of Ukee, now out of Tofino for about a decade. Live in Vancouver and fish here when I can but work often gets in the way. I've caught more Tyee per hour of fishing...

We picked up a tyee on a hootchie yesterday as well, bit different area. There are some bigger fish around at the moment. a lot of 10-12. A bunch of 18-22, and the odd Tyee

Braid is way easier on hands.

pm me when you get to town if u like

If you look at the pic the bottom clip is set to the "loose" position. If you pull back that center piece so it clicks into place, the tension is set higher. http://scotty.com/product/no-1173/ The “tension adjuster” doubles the holding power if needed

WOW INFORMATION OVERLOAD Got lost on that Alan Hawks site for a couple of hours. If anyone wants to know anything about spinning reels I'm pretty sure its there. Thanks for that, I hadn't seen that site before.
